OVERVIEW & FEATURES

Product Description and Overview:

The GDF28 is fully automated for high capacity dispensing of

frozen fry products to provide a more consistent, high quality prod-

uct. The hopper can hold up to 42 pounds/19 kilograms of various

frozen fry cuts or appetizers.

Empty baskets placed on the gravity-operated upper guide travel

toward the accumulator doors. A rotating drum inside the hopper

transfers frozen fries onto an electronic scale until the desired bas-

ket load is achieved. The portion controlled fry load is dispensed

into an empty basket and transferred to the lower guide by a lift.

Filled baskets are staged on the lower guide in preparation for

cooking. After cooking, return empty baskets to the upper guide to

repeat the cycle.

Operation of the GDF28 Fry Dispenser is easily controlled by an

on-off power switch, a basket load select switch and an illuminated

reset button – all located on the operator panel. A slow flashing

light (located within the reset button) alerts the crew that the fry

hopper is empty. A rapid flashing light signals that a system error

has occurred.
